AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE SYSTEM DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST


  1. DATA LIST

    Note

    In the table below, the values listed under "Normal Condition" are reference values. Do not depend solely on these reference values when deciding whether a part is faulty or not.

    Tech Tips

    Using the GTS to read the Data List allows the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators and other items to be read without removing any parts. This non-intrusive inspection can be very useful because intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Reading the Data List information early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time.


    1. Warm up the engine.

    2. Turn the engine switch off.

    3. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    4. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    5. Turn the GTS on.

    6. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Transmission / Data List.

    7. According to the display on the GTS, read the Data List.


      Powertrain > Transmission > Data List
      Tester Display Measurement Item Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Vehicle Speed Vehicle speed

      Min.: 0 km/h (0 MPH)

      Max.: 255 km/h (158 mph)

      		 Actual vehicle speed

      • This is the current vehicle speed.

      • The vehicle speed is detected using the wheel speed sensors.


        • Vehicle speed data is delayed when it is displayed. Therefore, even if the vehicle speed listed in the freeze frame data is 0 km/h (0 mph), this does not always mean that the malfunction occurred when the vehicle was stopped.
      Engine Speed Engine speed

      Min.: 0 rpm

      Max.: 16383 rpm

      		 750 to 850 rpm: Engine idling (shift lever in N, engine warmed up and A/C off) When the crankshaft position sensor is malfunctioning, "Engine Speed" will be approximately 0 rpm or varies greatly from the actual engine speed.
      Calculate Load Calculated load

      Min.: 0.0%

      Max.: 100.0%

      		 -

      • This is the engine load calculated based on the estimated intake pressure.

      • Calculate Load = Estimated intake pressure / maximum intake pressure x 100 (%)

        (For example, when the estimated intake pressure is the same as atmospheric pressure, Calculate Load is 100%.)
      Coolant Temperature Engine coolant temperature

      Min.: -40°C (-40°F)

      Max.: 140°C (284°F)

      		 75 to 100°C (167 to 212°F): After warming up

      This is the engine coolant temperature.

      Tech Tips


      • After warming up the engine, the engine coolant temperature is 75 to 100°C (167 to 212°F).

      • After a long soak, the engine coolant temperature, intake air temperature and ambient air temperature are approximately equal.

      • If the value is -40°C (-40°F), or 140°C (284°F), the sensor circuit is open or shorted.

      • Check if the engine overheats when the value indicated is higher than 140°C (284°F).
      Intake Air Temperature Intake air temperature

      Min.: -40°C (-40°F)

      Max.: 140°C (284°F)

      		 Equivalent to ambient air temperature

      • After a long soak, the engine coolant temperature, intake air temperature and ambient air temperature are approximately equal.

      • If the value is -40°C (-40°F), or 140°C (284°F), the sensor circuit is open or shorted.
      Engine Run Time Engine run time

      Min.: 0 sec.

      Max.: 65535 sec.

      		 Time after engine start

      This is the time elapsed since the engine started.

      Tech Tips

      The time is counted only while the engine is running.
      Battery Voltage Battery voltage

      Min.: 0 V

      Max.: 65.5 V

      		 11 to 14 V: Engine idling If 11 V or less, characteristics of some electrical components may change.
      BATT Voltage Battery voltage

      Min.: 0 V

      Max.: 79.998 V

      		 11 to 14 V: Engine idling If 11 V or less, characteristics of some electrical components may change.
      Throttle Position Sensor No.1 Voltage % Absolute throttle position sensor (No. 1)

      Min.: 0%

      Max.: 100%

      • 10 to 22%: Accelerator pedal fully released

      • 64 to 96%: Accelerator pedal fully depressed (engine running)

      The No. 1 throttle position sensor output is converted using 5 V = 100%.

      Tech Tips

      If there are no throttle position sensor DTCs stored, it is possible to conclude that the throttle position sensor system is normal.
      Starter SW Starter signal ON or OFF

      • ON: Starter operating

      • OFF: Starter not operating

      		 -
      Neutral Position SW Park/neutral position switch status ON or OFF

      • ON: Shift lever in P or N

      • OFF: Shift lever not in P or N

  2. ACTIVE TEST

    Tech Tips

    Using the GTS to perform Active Tests allows relays, VSVs, actuators and other items to be operated without removing any parts. This non-intrusive functional inspection can be very useful because intermittent operation may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Performing Active Tests early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time. Data List information can be displayed while performing Active Tests.


    1. Warm up the engine.

    2. Turn the engine switch off.

    3. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    4. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    5. Turn the GTS on.

    6. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Transmission / Active Test.

    7. Perform the Active Test according to the display on the GTS.

      Can be used to check the operation of the solenoid valves.

      Upshifts and downshifts should be performed consecutively. A 10-second interval is required between gear changes.

      Do not downshift at high speeds. Doing so will damage the automatic transaxle.

      Tech Tips


      • Performing the Active Test "Activate the Solenoid (SLT)" allows the change in line pressure to be checked with SST installed to the automatic transaxle. The same SST is used for the Hydraulic Test.
